Obstacle Distance Indicator (If
Equipped)
The system provides obstacle distanceindication through the information display.
As the distance to the obstacle decreases,the indicator blocks illuminate and movetoward the vehicle icon. If there is noobstacle detected, the distance indicatorblocks show greyed out.
When you shift to reverse (R), the sidesensing system provides audible and visualdistance indication when your vehicle ismoving and obstacles are detected within12 in (30 cm), or when obstacles aredetected within 12–24 in (30–60 cm) andare inside the driving path of your vehicle.When you stop your vehicle the audiblewarning stops after two seconds.
Note:Visual distance indication remainson when the transmission is in reverse (R).
When you shift to drive (D) or any otherforward gear, for example, low (L), sport(S) or any forward gear in manualtransmission, the side sensing systemprovides audible and visual distanceindication when your vehicle is moving at7 mph (12 km/h) or below and obstaclesare detected within 12 in (30 cm), or whenobstacles are detected within 12–24 in(30–60 cm) and are inside the driving pathof your vehicle. When you stop your vehiclethe audible warning stops after 2 secondsand the visual distance indication stopsafter 4 seconds.
Note:If the obstacle remains within 12 in(30 cm) visual distance indication remainson.
If the transmission is in neutral (N), the sidesensing system only provides visualdistance indication when your vehicle ismoving at 7 mph (12 km/h) or below, forexample when moving on a slope, andobstacles are detected within 12 in(30 cm). When you stop your vehicle thevisual distance indication stops after 4seconds.
If the side sensing system is not available,the side distance indicator blocks will notbe present.
The side sensing system is not availableunder the following condition:

Detection Issues
WARNING
On rare occasions, detection issuescan occur due to the roadinfrastructures, for example bridges,tunnels and safety barriers. In these cases,the system may brake late orunexpectedly. At all times, you areresponsible for controlling your vehicle,supervising the system and intervening, ifrequired.
The radar sensor has a limited field ofvision. It may not detect vehicles at all ormay detect a vehicle later than expectedin some situations. The lead vehicle graphicwill not illuminate if the system does notdetect a vehicle in front of you.
Detection issues can occur:
When driving on a different linethan the vehicle in front.A
With vehicles that edge into yourlane. The system can only detectthese vehicles once they movefully into your lane.
B
There may be issues with thedetection of vehicles in frontwhen driving into and coming outof a bend or curve in the road.
C
In these cases the system may brake lateor unexpectedly. You should stay alert andintervene if necessary.
If something hits the front end of yourvehicle or damage occurs, theradar-sensing zone may change. This couldcause missed or false vehicle detections.Contact an authorized dealer to check theradar for proper coverage and operation.
System Not Available
Conditions that can cause the system toturn off or prevent the system from turningon when requested include:
•A blocked sensor.
•High brake temperature.
•A failure in the system or a relatedsystem.

A message appears if something obstructsthe sensor's radar signals. The sensor islocated behind a cover near the driver sideof the lower grille. The system cannotdetect a vehicle ahead and does notfunction when something obstructs the
radar signal.
Note:You cannot see the sensor, it isbehind a fascia panel.
The following table lists possible causesand actions for this message displaying.
ActionCause
Clean the grille surface in front of the radaror remove the object obstructing it.The surface of the radar in the grille is dirtyor obstructed in some way.
Wait a short time. It may take severalminutes for the radar to detect that it is freefrom obstruction.
The surface of the radar in the grille is cleanbut the message remains in the display.
Do not use the system in these conditionsbecause it may not detect any vehiclesahead.
Heavy rain or snow is interfering with theradar signals.
Do not use the system in these conditionsbecause it may not detect any vehiclesahead.
Swirling water, or snow or ice on the surfaceof the road may interfere with the radarsignals.
Wait a short time or switch to normal cruisecontrol.You are in a desert or remote area with noother vehicles and no roadside objects.
Due to the nature of radar technology, it ispossible to get a blockage warning and notbe blocked. This can happen, for example,when driving in sparse rural or desertenvironments. A false blocked conditionwill either self clear or clear after a keycycle.
Switching to Normal CruiseControl
WARNING
Normal cruise control will not brakedue to slower vehicles. Always beaware of which mode you haveselected and apply the brakes whennecessary.
You can manually change from adaptivecruise control to normal cruise controlthrough the information display. SeeInformation Displays (page 94).
The cruise control indicator lightreplaces the adaptive cruisecontrol indicator light if youselect normal cruise control. The gapsetting will not display, the system will notautomatically respond to lead vehicles andautomatic braking will not activate.
